w810i XS++ 3.1 flashing woes
Hi everyone,
I have a W810i which went into a spin after I foolishly took out the memory stick while the phone was still on. After this, the white screen effect began.
I have done the following so far, after hundreds of tries (literally!):
1. Backed up GDFS
2. Flashed Main with W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49 and FS with W810_R4EA031_FS_EUROPE_2_RED49 successfully. (Thanks to mohdumer!).
I have then tried to Customize the phone back to S_Asia_Levan many times, but failed. Next, I tried to Customize to Eurpoe_2 specs, in an effort to match the FS file in #2 above.
The flash starts successfully about one time in 75, but is getting stuck at the "Activating filesystem" point. Here's the log:

Re: w810i XS++ 3.1 flashing woes
Here's some additional information that may help arrive at a solution to my problem:
I've successfully flashed the Main & FS files with 810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49 & W810_R4EA031_FS_EUROPE_2_RED4.
I've been trying unsuccessfully to customize the phone all afternoon, but no luck on that count.
The thing though is, I've flashed Main & FS. How in the world then is the phone still being detected as a S-Asia_Levan region with a Firmware Version: R4ED001? I have finished flashing with R4EA031 versions!
Here's the customization attempt log:

Try to flash it with SeTool2Lite.

I just re-flashed the phone using XS++ 3.1 Darwin and the R4KE0001 Main/FS files. Here's the log:

there is something wrong with your GDFS if you have a backup you should try to restire it

Thanks, but that error doesn't always appear. Here's the log from the Customization I attempted right after I flashed, no errors with GDFS this time around:

Re: w810i XS++ 3.1 flashing woes
@airfoil you must use: Downloads - R4EA031_RED49 - Top Sony Forums
W810_R4ED001_FS_S_ASIA_LEVAN_RED49
W810_CDA102555_110_R2A_Generic_S_ASIA_LEVAN (Download here)
W810_R4EA031_MAIN_GENERIC_HN_RED49
First flash File System
Then make customize on File System with W810_CDA102555_110_R2A_Generic_S_ASIA_LEVAN
And finaly flash Main.
Re: w810i XS++ 3.1 flashing woes
Do the steps senter said, then "update with SE Update System to try if your phone is recognized correctly, and eventually, correctly updated.
SEUS is a good way to check our phones.

problem in software of ,better say, in man, who make that phone before you.
a certificate is mismatched inside phone, which is always bad.
what we need to do ? reflash phone properly.
first - press unlock

Elapsed:8 secs.
-----------------------------------
we can see - it is OTP RED36 phone, but firmware has RED29 certificate inside.
i NOT supporting such combination, because that is wrong.
now, after recovery, our phone is dead and we need reflash it.
but TAKE A NOTE - SELECT YOUR OTP CID in CID CHANGE droplist !
(i.e. red36 in our case)
then flash only main (if you know version) or just flash standart main+fs+complete.
